View through CrossRef
Recently, there have been concerns about the attitude of some secretaries or administrative assistants in various organisations across Nigeria and this has been blamed on several factors. This paper subjects the types of leadership styles to productivity of secretaries or administrative assistants in the public sector in Nigeria. It has been found out that Leadership is not attached to a particular style but uses the style that may fit the situation or circumstance. Many secretaries and administrative assistants are aware of the competences needed to perform their role. However, these competences appear to be not in use or exhibited by this category of employees. Autocratic leadership style does not necessarily lead to high turnover and absenteeism, low productivity and distortion of communication.
